Rebirth of the Viking King

Chapter 639 62

"Gentlemen and ladies, my respected fellow Romans!"

"Today is such a beautiful day!"

The 6-story Colosseum was packed today. The master of ceremonies in the arena, wearing a festive dress, walked to the center of the field, and thunderous applause echoed from all around.

"Let us pay tribute to my respected king, Michael III!"

All the Roman citizens in the venue stood up at the same time and faced the huge box on the central podium. The Byzantine King Michael III in the box also stood up and returned a respectful salute to all the people.

Next to him sat all the members of the Mikhail family.

No matter how you look at it, Mikhail III can be called a qualified emperor.

When he was young, he personally led the army to resist the attack of the Arab Empire. As an emperor, he led the Roman navy on personal expeditions and ate and lived with the soldiers on the border.

He did not return to the royal city until the Abbas family retreated.

After the empire's territory was stabilized, Mikhail III returned to the royal city and discovered the power of science. The Royal Academy of Sciences has been able to develop rapidly in recent decades. This may seem accidental, but in fact it is inseparable from the strong support of the Byzantine king.

After Emma Waldorf, the chief explorer of the Waldorf family, opened up a new sea route, Mikhail III did not even send a team for field investigation. Instead, he directly allocated millions of gold coins to the Waldorf Chamber of Commerce to support their exploration of the new sea route. Development of air routes.

In the early days of exploration, the Roman navy was even dispatched to escort merchant ships along the way.

Without the support of the Byzantine king behind him, it would be impossible for the city to accumulate a large amount of gold and silver through trade in a short period of time.

It is impossible to develop to today's status in a short period of time.

The rapid expansion of the bachelor group allowed the "fanatics" to quickly gain social status. The Holy Episcopal Church, which almost controls the sky with one hand in the kingdom, is forced to pay attention to this emerging group of opponents.

The original binary opposition between the royal family and religion suddenly entered with a new opponent, which relieved the ruling pressure on the Mikhail family to a considerable extent.

Ordinary emperors rely on these two achievements to be famous in history. But Michael III offered Rome more than this. Despite his imperial title, he never used his power to interfere with the work of the Senate.

The democratic and republican ideals inherited from the ancient Roman era have gained the best power during his decades in power. For all citizens, they can truly feel that they have become the decision-makers of the kingdom's laws to some extent. .

All of this stems from the emperor's enlightenment.

Even though he was the king of Byzantium, and even though it was his birthday, Michael III still wore that rather simple linen robe. Hearing the people shouting his name, he stood up from the throne and gently raised his hands.

There was a moment of silence in the arena.

"After a lapse of six months, we gathered in this building again to enjoy the wonderful performance performed by the powerful warriors."

"I hope the god of destiny XXX will favor each of us here."

"Let the game begin!"

**

After the King's truncated speech, the audience was once again reminded of cheers and applause.

After the host left, the originally flat ground of the Colosseum suddenly sunk in. The creaking sound of the loudspeaker reminded us that a platform was slowly rising from the ground.

Sartre and Gulaur held their breath and looked at the center of the field.

Even before entering the venue, they had heard the name "Red Blood Pigeon" from the casino owner.

Others may not know much about the word "blood pigeon", but these two Viking pirates from Hanshui Village are indeed as familiar as the palms of their own hands.

There are a total of 5 Viking settlements in the river valley, and Blood Pigeon Town is the closest to Hanshui Village.

Sartre was born and raised in Hanshui Village. When he became an adult, he became the hunting captain of Hanshui Village. During the years of struggling to survive in Scandinavia, Blood Pigeon Town, which was only a canyon away from Hanshui Village, provided them with all kinds of help.

When Swain Gonk of Mistduck Town attacked Coldwater Village under the instructions of Duke Bernard. Without Blood Pigeon Town's help at the last moment, Hanshui Village would still be doomed.

All of this is remembered in the hearts of every Hanshui Village resident who participated in that tragic battle.

16 years ago, during the invasion of Slavic England, Hummel Blood Pigeon chose to retreat. Everyone has different choices when facing a crisis

In the forest, wolves will most likely choose to run away when they see a human bear.

This was not a big fault in the eyes of the Viking hunters.

However, when I saw everyone in Blood Dove Town again, they all died tragically in the dungeon of Storm's End.

Sartre, all the witnesses of the Battle of Cold Water Village in Gulaur were all fighting on the English Islands at the time, and among the old, weak, women and children left behind in Scandinavia, no one could tell clearly what happened when they fell to the ground.

The only news that could be learned was that one of the several longships docked on the beach disappeared.

Fishermen fishing on the beach claimed to have seen a lone woman escaping in a boat.

This person is most likely "Siren" Ge Lin.

Before entering the arena, Sartre had already counted on his fingers.

If what Jerome said is correct, and if she was indeed pregnant at the time, the child she gave birth to would have been 15 years old this year.

Is it possible that the person the casino owner mentioned is really the last member of the Blood Pigeon Town?

If this is true

Does it mean that the long-missing "Siren" Ge Lin also lives in this city?
